Penn Jillette

I don't know if you've heard of Penn & Teller.

They are a magic/comedy team.

Penn Jillette is the talkative one of the duo.  In fact, I'm not sure if I've ever heard Teller say a word.  It's part of their act.

Anyway,  Bronwyn showed me the video below the other day from someone else's blog.

Penn Jillette is an outspoken atheist.  He believes there is no God.  He also, from what I've read, seems to like to have discussions with people who believe in God.  He encourages discussions, not fighting, about this because he believes it's too important not to discuss.

Apparantly a couple of years ago he made videos and posted them online.  He made the following after a conversation with a believer.

I strongly encourage you to watch the whole video and especially listen to what this atheist says about why we should share our faith (the 3-4 minute mark).

Here is someone who doesn't even believe in God and his logic for us evangelizing will smash you on your head like a hammer.  It makes perfect sense.

If you are in need of a hammer to the head reminder today of the importance of our witness to everyone around us then watch the following video from the unbeliever.  You will be amazed and, I think, inspired to go do what God wants you to do.

Simple but true words weren't they?

You may have felt uncomfortable to hear them.  That's okay.  I believe our faith grows when we are challenged and made to feel uncomfortable when our faith walk is challenged.

Let's start today by refocusing on sharing the love of Christ to this world.

Join me in thanking God for being able to use an atheist to wake up His people.

Now, let's start praying for Penn Jillette to, one day in the near future, make a decision for Jesus.
